Abandoned School

3 nights at Abandoned School

Abandoned school was a fun trip! Property was well maintained and dangerous areas safely gated off while still viewable! The property is decently lit at night and the porter potty was cleaned very well!

Weekend Trip to Clarion Heights

This was our second time there, which should say something. It really turned in this place into a great spot to get away and to explore some of Pennsylvania’s Best. Incredibly friendly and caring hosts. My wife, son and I went there to be close to good fishing for opening day at Trout season. It rained nearly nonstop the entire time we were there. Yet, we still had a great time.

Weekend Trip to Clarion Heights

My son and I loved this place. If we had property, we would probably do something similar. We ended up at a little better campsite as far as size and work that was put into it. Even though the papermill is down over the hill and you could see and hear it 24 hours it wasn’t bothersome. We had deer in the campsite. It was quiet. The host were respectful and helpful.
